I'm really not good with computers. I recently got a new one with Windows 7. I installed Ubuntu on my old computer and used it with no problem. I decided to install Ubuntu alongside Windows 7 on my new computer by using the alternate CD that I burned. When I start the computer the boot menu comes up, but if I select Ubuntu is does not load. It comes up with a purple screen for a few seconds, but then goes blank and switches from a black screen to a blueish screen, like it's trying to do something but doesn't. I've gone into recovery mode successfully but have no idea what to do once I get there.

This question appears to be off-topic. The users who voted to close gave this specific reason:

"This describes a problem that can't be reproduced that seemingly went away on its own or was only relevant to a very specific period of time. It's off-topic as it's unlikely to help future readers." – bain, psusi, chaskes, Sylvain Pineau
